This is a good idea, and actually synergizes well with some tailor options. Quite aside from this (and the idea of selectable transporter FX - for example, owning any Hur'q ship makes their 'globe' transporter FX available as an option), there's no…
-
I would add to talgeeze's sentiment that this is an opportunity to release concept badges for the KDF and RRN that didn't make it into service. Also surprised that Zef's outfit isn't an unlock (they did have to do much of the modeling for it to mak…
-
Which I do not propose as a solution (the theoretical T6 Kar'Fi would still be a KDF-specific ship) - for a fourth Fek'Ihri ship there are, aside from an all-new design, the Fer'Jai and K'Norr to consider. Besides, it can be argued that the closest…

Aside from making the suit from the 20th-centrury formalwear package gender-agnostic, I would also hope that they give the top the no-jacket options (shirt only; shirt & vest). Further, the longcoat (as shown off by President Lincoln in 'Measur…

I suspect this ship won't be the only spawn of the new joint design program. For example, we could see an escort which blends Federation and Romulan design philosophies (sort of related: the Surhuelh-class does incorporate some Federation - Vulcan,…

Quoted for truth. There is little reason for the status quo (it can be argued that JHV characters should have Dominion-polaron as their default weapon type, but that's probably a conversation for elsewhen). Yes, you can add the missing types to th…
-
All of these changes appear interesting (and make me wonder if they're also going to be updating the various Borg models in the process); hopefully the devs have realized that timegates are one of those 'extra hoops' players despise and will keep th…
-
I'd honestly forgotten about that one; it could well be a unique vessel (much like the Annorax-class' canonical appearance).
-
In-universe, it would make sense for TFO's rep-store weapons to be kinetic as opposed to DEWs with a special proc, but that's probably best debated in depth elsewhere. This is an opportunity to fix the issues with certain variants of MACO/KHG regal…
-
One of the nicer QoL features is the ability to control at a basic level WinAmp or iTunes from inside the game (which mutes the game music while either is playing). Since this particular update, just opening the internal music player with WinAmp as…
-
I would put forward that yes, you can have both. Folks want the weapons, but not necessarily the ship? They'd still be able to trawl the Exchange or roll the proverbial dice, like they do now. The ships themselves would have extra value from foll…

Delivered. And has jacketless as well as the shown open- and closed-top variations if the relevant folks are sensible. Not just cool, but logically consistent. In fact, an argument can be made for the tailor needing an extensive consistency pass …
-
This is, in my opinion, a mistaken decision. Far more sensible would be to apply the precedent set by the Andorian escorts to all ships with special-flavor base weapons, as elaborated here.
-
If I recall correctly, this question was addressed in last week's Ten-Forward. Specifically, this addition to the TFO menu is an alternative to, instead of a replacement for, flying out there yourself... and indeed, systems with patrols would be ma…
-
I understand your concern about... distinctiveness, I believe is the intended term. Keep in mind, though, that Romulan (and, I presume, Reman) operators do get exclusive access to traits like Singularity Specialist, so the effect might not be as se…
-
That certainly didn't preclude the existence of its space sets...
-
Correct. From my reading of the reference material, I understand that the proc effect is two-pronged: shield drain (similar to the destab-tetryon, but instant...which, now that I think about it, just sounds like the basic tetryon proc) and hardness…
-
Well, between Awakening putting the spotlight back on the Elachi, and talk about the state of New Romulus (which could be an excuse for a revamp, much like how certain events were in-universe rationale for doing so with ESD and DS9), this would be a…
-
A more detailed explanation of this 'bunch of things' would be welcome... many players, I imagine, are suspicious of such vagueness, but that is a conversation for elsewhere. More relevant would be how readily this could be adapted to a ground trai…
-
Related, I think that there should, in addition, be an upgrade mechanic in the vein of T5->T5U which lets you upgrade one of these older ships into its T6 counterpart, provided the latter exists.
-
Fixed, because the good ambassador apparently needs a refresher on BBCode. Posting naked HTML is a touch unprofessional. Ships may take the glory, but it's warriors who take the real estate. It's good to have the Arena back for another round, but…
-
I suspect it's akin to the Caitian/Ferasan escort bundle, but instead containing the prime-universe Engle-class (as distinct from its Terran version, found here), and its apparent KDF counterpart, the Sechs-class (which can be found in among other p…
-
Nice to see someone else knows the classics. And a crossover of sorts would be completely justified given how a certain redheaded 'greatest scientist in the universe' isn't above tinkering with dimensional rifts and whatnot...
-
More like them butting heads; bonus points if J'Ula shows up and makes it a terminal three-way...
-
The idea, storywise, is to try and get one's mental tendrils wrapped around how she thinks... and from there, try and figure out how she would adapt to and leverage the present situation to her own ends (as implied here, she is most certainly doing …
-
Which reminds me of some other things I'd like to see cross-pollinated from IDW's work, like their take on TNG-era Terran uniforms... and, from an upcoming project of theirs, the Terran version of the Intrepid-class. So, we're finally going to get …
-
The simplest way to fix this would be to add the Vanguards' extra mastery tier to T6 Romulan ships.
-
Indeed; it could also be seen as a nod to the infamous Mantel corporation (some of whose associated armor designs wouldn't be out of place here in STO, but that's a conversation for elsewhere - as is the shame which is the lack of customizability of…
-
In-universe fiction like this is always welcome, I would point out, too, that this also represents an in-universe justification for the wingmen mechanic being cross-pollinated beyond the Vanguard fleet...
-
I too think a noncombat pet tab is long overdue. It cannot be that difficult a thing to create, coding-wise. And this wouldn't be too hard a thing to do either; the ship vendors already have similar functionality letting you filter by tier and shi…
